The invention is described in detail below with reference to the figures and the embodiments.
Referring to fig. 1, afirst battery pack 11 and asecond battery pack 12, which may be identical or different, are used to supply power to thepower tool 13. Thefirst battery pack 11 and thesecond battery pack 12 can also be separately combined with other electric tools to supply power.
Specifically, thefirst battery pack 11 and thesecond battery pack 12 are both lithium batteries and have the same rated voltage and the same battery pack interface.
Thefirst battery pack 11 mainly includes: afirst device anode 111, abattery pack 112, and afirst device cathode 113, wherein thefirst device anode 111 and thefirst device cathode 113 are respectively connected to the anode and the cathode of thebattery pack 112 and serve as the anode and the cathode of thefirst battery pack 11 for outputting electric energy. Thebattery pack 112 may be composed of a plurality of cell connections.
Thesecond battery pack 12 mainly includes: a second device positive electrode 121, abattery pack 122, and a second devicenegative electrode 123, wherein the second device positive electrode 121 and the second devicenegative electrode 123 are respectively connected to the positive electrode and the negative electrode of thebattery pack 122 and serve as the positive electrode and the negative electrode of thesecond battery pack 12 for outputting electric energy. Thebattery pack 122 may be composed of a plurality of cell connections.
Theelectric power tool 13 mainly includes: a first battery housing part for connecting thefirst battery pack 11 and a second battery housing part for connecting thesecond battery pack 12.
The first battery housing portion includes at least: a firstpositive access terminal 132 and a firstnegative access terminal 133, the firstpositive access terminal 132 being electrically connected to the first device positive 111, the firstnegative access terminal 133 being electrically connected to the first device negative 113.
The second battery housing portion includes at least: a secondpositive terminal 135 and a secondnegative terminal 136, the secondpositive terminal 135 being electrically connected to the second device positive electrode 121, and the secondnegative terminal 136 being electrically connected to the second devicenegative electrode 123.
The first and secondpositive access terminals 132 and 135 are each connected to positive node a, and the first and secondnegative access terminals 133 and 136 are each connected to negative node B.
Theelectric power tool 13 further includes: afirst switching device 131, asecond switching device 134, amotor 138, and a controller 139.
Motor 139 is connected between positive node a and negative node B.
Thefirst switching device 131 is disposed between the positive electrode node a and the first positiveelectrode access terminal 132, and has a first connection end connected to the positive electrode node a and a second connection end connected to the first battery receiving portion, and in particular, the second connection end is electrically connected to the first positiveelectrode access terminal 132. Thefirst switching device 131 is used to connect or disconnect the first battery receiving part to themotor 138.
Alternatively, thefirst switching device 131 is a semiconductor element, and specifically, thefirst switching device 131 is a field effect transistor. Of course, thefirst switching device 131 may also be a circuit module with a switching function, which is composed of semiconductor elements and other electronic components, and which likewise has a first connection end connected to the positive electrode node a and a second connection end connected to the first positiveelectrode connection terminal 132.
Thesecond switching device 134 is disposed between the positive electrode node a and the second positiveelectrode access terminal 136, and also has a first connection end connected to the positive electrode node a and a second connection end connected to the second battery receiving portion, specifically, the second connection end is electrically connected to the second positiveelectrode access terminal 135. Thesecond switching device 134 is used to connect or disconnect the second battery receiving portion to themotor 138.
In theelectric power tool 13, thesecond switching device 134 may employ the same semiconductor element or a circuit module having a switching function as thefirst switching device 131. And will not be described in detail herein.
Referring to fig. 1, when thefirst battery pack 11 and thesecond battery pack 12 are respectively connected to theelectric power tool 13, the first devicepositive electrode 111 is connected to the first positiveterminal access terminal 132, and the first devicenegative electrode 113 is connected to the first negativeterminal access terminal 133; the second device positive electrode 121 is connected to the secondpositive terminal 135, and the second devicenegative electrode 123 is connected to the secondnegative terminal 136.
Since the firstpositive access terminal 132 and the secondpositive access terminal 135 are both connected to the positive node a; the first negativeterminal access terminal 133 and the second negativeterminal access terminal 136 are both connected to the negative node B, so that thefirst battery pack 11 and thesecond battery pack 12 are equivalent to being connected in parallel to power themotor 138 when theswitch 137 is closed.
It is assumed that the voltage of thefirst battery pack 11 is higher than the voltage of thesecond battery pack 12.
Since the first devicenegative electrode 113 and the second devicenegative electrode 123 are connected to the same ground potential point through the first negative electrodeincoming terminal 133 and the second negative electrode incomingterminal 136, respectively; the voltage at firstpositive terminal 132 is greater than the voltage at secondpositive terminal 135.
As shown in fig. 1, thefirst switching device 131 and thesecond switching device 134 are field effect transistors and have two connection terminals and a control terminal, the two switching terminals of thefirst switching device 131 are connected in series between the first positiveelectrode access terminal 132 and the positive electrode node a, the first switching device is turned on, and the current flowing from the first positiveelectrode access terminal 132 flows to the positive electrode node a through the two connection terminals of thefirst switching device 131.
Thecontroller 139a detects a potential difference between both ends of thefirst switching device 131, that is, a potential difference between the first connection end and the second connection end of thefirst switching device 131, and outputs a disconnection control signal to disconnect the connection between the first battery pack and the motor when the potential difference is smaller than a preset value (the preset value is greater than 0).
Thecontroller 139b detects a potential difference across thesecond switching device 134 and outputs a cut-off control signal to cut off the connection of the second battery pack to the motor when the potential difference is less than a preset value.
When the voltage of thefirst battery pack 11 is higher than the voltage of thesecond battery pack 12, as can be known from the circuit theory, the voltage of the first positiveelectrode access terminal 132 is greater than the positive electrode node a, the voltage of the second positiveelectrode access terminal 134 is less than the positive electrode node a, and when thecontroller 139b detects that the potential difference between the first connection end and the second connection end of thesecond switch device 134 is less than the preset value, thesecond switch device 134 is turned off, so that thefirst battery pack 11 cannot charge thesecond battery pack 12, and thus the current is prevented from flowing backwards to thesecond battery pack 12. At this time, the potential difference between the two ends of thefirst switching device 131 is greater than or equal to the preset value, and the connection between the first battery pack and the motor is conducted to supply power to the electric tool.
When the voltage of thefirst battery pack 11 is equal to the voltage of thesecond battery pack 12, thecontrollers 139a and 139b control thefirst switching device 131 and thesecond switching device 134 to be turned on by detecting the potential difference between both the switching devices, so that thefirst switching device 131 and thesecond switching device 134 are connected in parallel to supply power to theelectric tool 23.
Therefore, no matter thefirst battery pack 11 and thesecond battery pack 12 are connected simultaneously or thefirst battery pack 11 and thesecond battery pack 12 are connected sequentially, theelectric tool 13 can supply power to theelectric tool 13 simultaneously when the voltage of the electric tool is equal to that of the electric tool, and the situation that the higher voltage of the two battery packs connected in parallel flows backwards to the lower voltage of the two battery packs is avoided.
In order to prevent thefirst battery pack 11 and thesecond battery pack 12 from being over-discharged, thecontroller 139a detects the voltage of thefirst battery pack 11, and disconnects the first battery pack from the motor when the voltage of the first battery pack is lower than a voltage threshold.
Thecontroller 139b detects the voltage of the second battery pack, and disconnects the second battery pack from the motor when the voltage of the second battery pack is lower than the voltage threshold.
Alternatively, thecontroller 139a is configured to detect a current flowing from the first connection terminal to the second connection terminal of thefirst switching device 131, and to cause thefirst switching device 131 to disconnect the two connection terminals when the current is smaller than a preset value.
Thecontroller 139b is configured to detect a current flowing from the first connection terminal to the second connection terminal of thesecond switching device 134, and when the current is smaller than a preset value, thesecond switching device 134 is configured to disconnect the two connection terminals.

As another example, referring to fig. 2, thefirst switching device 213 and thefirst controller 212 may be provided in thefirst battery pack 21, and thesecond switching device 223 and thesecond controller 222 may be provided in thesecond battery pack 22. Wherein thefirst switching device 213 is connected between the first devicepositive electrode 211 and the positive electrode of thefirst battery pack 214; thesecond switching device 223 is connected between the second devicepositive electrode 221 and the positive electrode of thefirst battery pack 224.
As shown in fig. 2, thefirst switching device 213 and thesecond switching device 223 are field effect transistors, thefirst controller 212 is connected to a control terminal of thefirst switching device 213 for controlling thefirst switching device 231 to be turned on or off, and thesecond controller 222 is connected to a control terminal of thesecond switching device 223 for controlling thesecond switching device 223 to be turned on or off.
When thefirst battery pack 21 and thesecond battery pack 22 are respectively connected to theelectric power tool 23, the first devicepositive electrode 211 is connected to the first positiveterminal connection terminal 231, and the first devicenegative electrode 215 is connected to the first negativeterminal connection terminal 232; the second devicepositive electrode 221 is connected to the secondpositive terminal 233, and the second devicenegative electrode 225 is connected to the secondnegative terminal 234.
This also provides a parallel circuit equivalent to the arrangement shown in figure 1 to power themotor 236 when theswitch 235 is closed. The control manner adopted by thefirst controller 212 and thesecond controller 222 is the same as that of the embodiment shown in fig. 1, and is not described again here.
As another example, apower tool 33 capable of connecting afirst battery pack 31 and asecond battery pack 32 is shown in fig. 3.
When thefirst battery pack 31 and thesecond battery pack 32 are respectively connected to theelectric power tool 33, the first devicepositive electrode 311 is connected to the first positiveelectrode connection terminal 331, and the first devicenegative electrode 313 is connected to the first negativeelectrode connection terminal 332; the second devicepositive electrode 321 is connected to the secondpositive terminal 334, and the second devicenegative electrode 323 is connected to the secondnegative terminal 335.
Theelectric power tool 33 differs from theelectric power tool 13 shown in fig. 1 in that afirst switching device 333 is provided between the negative electrode node D and the first battery housing, and asecond switching device 336 is provided between the negative electrode node D and the second battery housing.
Specifically, thefirst switching device 333 is a field effect transistor having a first connection terminal connected to the negative electrode node D, a second connection terminal connected to the first negativeelectrode connection terminal 332, and a control terminal connected to thefirst controller 339 a.
Thesecond switching device 336 is also a field effect transistor, and similarly has a first connection terminal connected to the negative electrode node D, a second connection terminal connected to the second negativeelectrode connection terminal 335, and a control terminal connected to thesecond controller 339 b.
The firstpositive access terminal 331 and the secondpositive access terminal 334 are both connected to the positive node C.
The control terminal of thefirst controller 339a is connected to the control terminal of thefirst switching device 333, thefirst controller 339a detects a potential difference between the first connection terminal and the second connection terminal of thefirst switching device 333, and when the potential difference is greater than or equal to a preset value, thefirst switching device 333 turns on the connection between the first connection terminal and the second connection terminal. Theswitch 337 is closed and thefirst battery pack 31 and themotor 338 form a current loop.
The control terminal of thesecond controller 339b is connected to the control terminal of thesecond switch device 336, and thesecond controller 339b detects a potential difference between the first connection terminal and the second connection terminal of thesecond switch device 336, and when the potential difference is greater than or equal to a preset value, thesecond switch device 336 switches on the connection between the first connection terminal and the second connection terminal.Switch 337 is closed andsecond battery pack 32 andmotor 338 form a current loop.
Assuming that the voltage of thefirst battery pack 31 is greater than the voltage of thesecond battery pack 32, theswitch 337 is closed, and it can be known from circuit theory that the voltage of the firstnegative terminal 332 is less than the voltage of the negative node D, thefirst switch device 333 is turned on, and the current flows from the first connection terminal to the second connection terminal.
When thecontroller 339b detects that the potential difference between the first connection end and the second connection end of thesecond switch device 336 is smaller than the preset value, thesecond switch device 336 is turned off, so that thefirst battery pack 31 cannot charge thesecond battery pack 32, and thesecond battery pack 32 cannot output current, thereby preventing the current from flowing backwards to thesecond battery pack 32. At this time, the potential difference between the two ends of thefirst switching device 333 is greater than or equal to the preset value, the connection between the first battery pack and themotor 338 is conducted, and only thefirst battery pack 31 supplies power to the electric tool.
When the voltage of thefirst battery pack 31 is equal to the voltage of thesecond battery pack 32, thecontrollers 339a and 339b control thefirst switching device 333 and thesecond switching device 336 to be turned on by detecting a potential difference between both the switching devices, so that thefirst switching device 333 and thesecond switching device 336 are connected in parallel to supply power to thepower tool 23.
In order to prevent the first and second battery packs 31 and 32 from being over-discharged, thefirst controller 339a detects the voltage of thefirst battery pack 31, and disconnects the first battery receiving part from themotor 338 when the voltage of the first battery pack is lower than a voltage threshold.
Thesecond controller 339b detects the voltage of thesecond battery pack 32, and disconnects the second battery receiving portion from themotor 338 when the voltage of the second battery pack is lower than a voltage threshold.
As another alternative, thefirst controller 339a is configured to detect a current flowing from the first connection terminal to the second connection terminal of thefirst switching device 333, and to cause thefirst switching device 333 to disconnect the two connection terminals when the current is smaller than a preset value.
Thesecond controller 339b is configured to detect a current flowing from the first connection terminal to the second connection terminal of thesecond switching device 336, and when the current is smaller than a preset value, thesecond switching device 336 is configured to disconnect the two connection terminals.
As shown in fig. 4, thefirst switching device 414 and thefirst controller 413 may be provided in thefirst battery pack 41, and thesecond switching device 424 and thesecond controller 423 may be provided in thesecond battery pack 42. Wherein thefirst switching device 414 is connected between the first devicenegative electrode 415 and the negative electrode of thefirst cell group 412; thesecond switching device 424 is connected between the second devicenegative electrode 425 and the negative electrode of thesecond cell group 422.
